The Arrival

Sr. Maria Antonieta, Mother General, arrived!! It was a beautiful spring day filled with the wonderful smells of spring. We all were on hand outside when she arrived and gave her a typical warm Italian greeting with hugs and kisses (this means two kisses on the cheeks). She will be here in our Province for a good long while. The Mother General usually only is able to visit every six years since we are in so many places around the world. Mother General's presence with her Councilors is to connect us with all the sisters throughout the world. She is visiting on behalf of the whole Congregation to offer any assistance to the Province (all the locations we are in the United States and English speaking Canada) to help us focus on how we can bring Jesus to the world through the gifts of the sisters and our resources.
